Fundraising Agreement

2024-25 Fundraising Agreement
 

HVA Current’s fundraising efforts comprise a large part of what makes your HVAC experience successful. Through fundraising, the team will be able to make sure that we are providing the best opportunities for your swimmer(s) to grow and succeed. 
 

The fundraising obligation per swimmer is listed below:
 

If you have more than one swimmer on the team, your fundraising obligation begins at the highest-level group your swimmer is in plus 50% of your next highest-level swimmer. After the second swimmer, additional swimmers do not increase your fundraising obligation.
 

For example, if you have a Premium swimmer in Waves, a FLEX swimmer in Riptides and a Premium swimmer in Tsunamis, your obligation would be $75/month for Tsunamis + $25/month for Riptides + $0 for Waves for a total of $100/month. 

Any new family who has not previously registered a swimmer with HVAC will not be required to participate in fundraising for the first three months of their swimmers’ membership, whether they join as FLEX or Premium swimmers. After three months, accounts will begin accruing fundraising obligations monthly based upon the above parameters.

Fundraising obligations are set when the swimmer joins the team and will not change if the swimmer advances to a higher group during the 2024-25 swim year. Fundraising obligations will reset at the beginning of each swim year.

HVAC Families have 2 Options to fulfill their fundraising obligations:
 

Option #1: Lump-Sum Payment to Opt-Out of Fundraising

HVAC Swim Team families that wish to opt-out of fundraising efforts may fulfill their fundraising obligation by paying the amounts listed above calculated as a lump-sum payment for the swim year. For example, a swimmer joining Tsunamis in September would have a lump-sum payment of $825 ($75x11 months). A swimmer joining Tsunamis in February would have a lump-sum payment of $450 ($75x6 months). 
 

Fundraising opt-out payments are non refundable and must be made within 30 days of the swimmer’s team registration. Payments can be paid via cash/check or via online transaction through your PoolQueue account (transaction fees apply). 
 

Contact admin@hvacurrent.org if you are interested in making a lump-sum payment for your fundraising obligation. 

Option #2: Participating in various committee-driven team fundraisers

HVAC will identify and run various team fundraisers throughout the year. Monies raised will be applied toward your fundraising obligation.

We have several fundraisers planned for the year, and more may be added:

Raise Right (year-long)

Swim-a-thon (Fall 2024)

Wreaths Across America (Oct-Nov)

Raffle (Nov-Dec)

Polar Plunge (March)

At the end of your swimmers’ membership participation, whether it is FLEX (monthly) or Premium (full year), you will be billed for any funds not paid out or raised through team fundraisers. 
 

I have read the above Fundraising Agreement and acknowledge that I am expected to fulfill the team’s fundraising obligations via one of the approved methods listed above, and that I will be responsible for any fundraising obligations not paid for or raised via fundraisers, at the end of my swimmer(s) membership participation for 2024-25.
